Case Analysis of Individualized Nursing Combined with Acupoint Massage for a Patient with Chronic Constipation of Damp-heat Accumulation Syndrome
This paper summarizes the nursing experience of 1 case of chronic constipation of damp-heat accumulation syndrome with multiple comorbidities. The patient suffered from severe constipation, accompanied by anxiety and limited daily living function. Based on accurate assessment and syndrome differentiation nursing, individualized basic nursing, diet and exercise guidance, defecation training were implemented, combined with acupoint massage at Tianshu, Zusanli and other acupoints. After 10 days of intervention, the patient's constipation was relieved, anxiety was eliminated, quality of life was improved, and no complications occurred. This case indicates that individualized nursing combined with acupoint massage can safely and effectively improve the symptoms of chronic constipation in the elderly, which is consistent with the physiological and pathological characteristics of elderly patients, and can provide reference for clinical nursing of similar cases.
